Difficulties compiling on macOS ARM

[jcowgar]

When attempting to compile, I am getting the following errors:

$ ./install.sh /Users/jeremy/Projects/editors/yacco/release
install yacco
# golang.org/x/exp/shiny/driver/gldriver
vendor/golang.org/x/exp/shiny/driver/gldriver/context.go:21:10: undefined: surfaceCreate
vendor/golang.org/x/exp/shiny/driver/gldriver/screen.go:142:5: undefined: useLifecycler
vendor/golang.org/x/exp/shiny/driver/gldriver/screen.go:148:9: cannot use w (variable of type *windowImpl) as screen.Window value in return statement: *windowImpl does not implement screen.Window (missing method Raise)
vendor/golang.org/x/exp/shiny/driver/gldriver/window.go:71:5: undefined: handleSizeEventsAtChannelReceive

I saw in the README that shiny does not compile on macOS any longer and it references two methods that need Stubbed. I am not really a Go programmer and not sure what that really means or what I need to do to compile Yacco.

Thank you for any help.

IIRC since I wrote that paragraph things got even worse on macOS due to apple removing and deprecating opengl and the metal port of shiny is really buggy. Stubbing simply means adding an implementation of a function that does nothing.

It seems as though there are more errors than just stubbing now, as you mentioned. I commented some code out, stubbed a few methods and now have problems linking. I am going to guess that Yacco simply is no longer compatible with macOS.
